Therapy can be transformative by providing you with the support and care that you need. Together we will work to understand your story to shed light on the thoughts, behaviors, and emotions that are causing you distress. I specialize in working with clients who struggle with racial identity, assimilation, disordered eating, anxiety, depression, trauma, and family conflict. I also have experience in working with individuals of the LGBTQ+ community surrounding queer identity formation and coming out.

Do you find yourself lacking motivation, satisfaction, or direction? Perhaps you feel anxious, lost, or down? So often, despite appearances or what we strive to become, we are struggling on the inside and do not know how to make sense of it on our own. In our work together, we build an understanding of issues coming up in the present, as we connect the dots to the past, and create goals for the future.

Healing and self-discovery are necessary and ongoing processes of a healthy and thriving person. But what does it look like? How does one begin this journey? Though many of us hope to be well and to thrive in relationships, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Unpacking the traumas of your past and allowing yourself to feel your emotions can be overwhelming! My hope is to provide support and to partner with you as you embark on this journey toward mental health and wholeness.

Many of life's challenges stem from difficulties in navigating our relational, social, and cultural worlds. You may be struggling with distress related to relationships, emotion regulation, racial trauma, cultural identity, or self-worth. These problems can present as depression, anxiety, PTSD, somatic symptoms, or couple distress. You may have already tried many different ways of solving your problems before seeking professional help. Sometimes, the symptoms you present with are a result of trying to adapt to impossible situations.

Therapy is only as good as the relationship between therapist and client. I provide a space for the client to explore their vulnerabilities, hopes, challenges and meet them with unconditional positive regard, empathy, and an environment where growth can occur. The human experience is universal and yet it is as unique as each individual human. Culture, family background, and one’s own personal circumstances directly inform a client’s worldview. I work closely with those struggling to manage the stress of daily life and those experiencing challenges related to anxiety, depression, disordered eating, trauma, and relational challenges.
